Hi,
Keep thinking with what is in php.next that interfaces seem
overkill?
Doesn't
trait JSON
{
function toJSONString()
{
return json_encode(get_object_vars($this));
}
}
class A
{
use JSON;
public $a = 1;
protected $b = 2;
private $c = 3;
}
$a = new A();
echo $a->toJSONString(), "\n";
Make better sense?
Don't have to implement any interfaces, yet I still have freedom to
override it either in a differing trait or in the class.
